Weather in August
Temperature
The onset of August brings an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88.5°F (31.4°C), nearly matching the July temperature. In the month of August, the temperature generally rests at an average low of 69.1°F (20.6°C).Heat index
For August, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
Humidity
The months with the lowest humidity are July through September, with an average relative humidity of 71%.Rainfall
The month with the most rainfall is August, when the rain falls for 19 days and typically aggregates up to 4.49" (114mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

Sunshine
The average sunshine in August is 9.4h.UV index
May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 6 during August translates into the following directions:
Inhibit overexposure. Warding off sun damage is of utmost importance. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the period of highest UV radiation. Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
